Technical information:
 You can play chopper if you have ION installed on your calculator
 (you can find it on www.ticalc.org) and this file:
    zchopper.83p 1059 bytes (that's not much!)

The game:
 It's pretty easy! You fly a helicopter, but for gravitational reasons it always falls down.
 And that's the only thing you have to do: make sure it doesn't fall, ... and don't hit the
 rocks, that's important too :)
 The idea is based on http://www.seethru.co.uk/zine/south_coast/week13/images/copter.swf

How to play?
 All to easy, there's only one button to play the game: the up-arrow. When you hold it down,
 your chopper goes up, and when you don't touch it, the chopper goes down.

SCORING:
 The further you fly, the more points you get. When you install the game, the high score is at
 100 points which is easy to beat, but the real high score has been set by a friend of mine
 and is nothing less than 6279 points! (april 2003) Try to beat it!

Controls:
 -in the main menu:
   2nd      = start game
   mode     = quit to Ion
 -in game:
   up-arrow = move chopper up
   clear    = pause
 -in pause menu:
   2nd      = continue
   up-arrow = continue
   mode     = quit to Ion
 -when you crashed:
   2nd      = restart
   mode     = quit to Ion

Problems or bugs?
 I think that this program is bug-free, but you never 
 know for sure! If you find one, mail me at texameije@belgacom.net 

Source code?
 If you want the source code, mail me and I'll think about it...
 OK, I have thought about it and included it in this zip file, feel free to use it but give me
 a sign, I'd appreciate that...

Watch for my other programs, like Pipemania which is another fantastic game, or my interrupt-programs that run all the time when you use your calc: Screenmate, Belzeblub and Wallpaper
